"Enough," Josiah interrupted, not wanting to hear anymore.

However, Ivy continued, "Josiah, I repeat, as long as you're willing to marry me, I can let you and Meredith raise

Cooper. You don't have to love or want me...I've already compromised so much, so why are you still worried?"

"I can't marry you," Josiah said indifferently.

Once again, Josiah rejected Ivy.

Ivy lightly took a deep breath, feeling a little tired.

Not long after Josiah left, Ivy was about to return to the ward when she saw Grandma Shelby coming. She

immediately greeted her and called out respectfully, "Mrs. Shelby, why are you here?"

"Cooper is my grandson, so I'm obviously here to see him." Grandma Shelby looked at her and asked, "why aren't

you going in? Are you scared to face Joe?"

"N-No..." Ivy lowered her head slightly, saying, "Cooper fell asleep, and Joe went downstairs."

"What's he doing downstairs?"

"He..." Ivy knew that Josiah was probably looking for Meredith and Nia downstairs. After all, the mother-daughter

duo was still waiting for him there. However, Ivy did not dare to tell Grandma Shelby about it. Instead, she said

softly, "He said it was too boring to stay in the ward, so he wanted to go for a walk"

"Why didn't you go with him?"

"Mrs. Shelby, I have to stay here to accompany Cooper."

"There are nurses around, right? Besides, Cooper couldn't care less about your presence." Grandma Shelby's tone

was unkind. "If you don't find a chance to get along with Joe, how can you improve your relationship?"

"Mrs. Shelby, I'm already trying hard to find a chance to foster a relationship with Joe. Please give me more time."

"More time? As long as you can afford to wait," Grandma Shelby uttered and walked into the ward.

Ivy eagerly grabbed the hem of Grandma Shelby's clothes, sobbed, and begged, "Mrs. Shelby, I really can do

it...give me one more month..."

"One month?" Grandma Shelby glanced at her and nodded. "Sure. I'll give you another month."

Grandma Shelby entered the ward and came to Cooper's bed, smiling gently at him. "Darling, I'm here. Are you

feeling better?"

Cooper heard her voice and quickly looked at her, then shut his eyes again.



Grandma Shelby was obviously used to his aloofness, and she did not take it to heart. Instead, she held his little

hands and said, " Cooper, I heard from the doctor that your wound is not serious. How about leaving the hospital?"

After all, they had a doctor at home too, so he did not need to suffer here. Unexpectedly, Cooper was not happy

about being discharged from the hospital. Instead, he shook his head hard.

"Cooper, you don't want to leave? Why?" Grandma Shelby thought about it and asked, "Is it because you can see

Daddy every day in the hospital?"

Cooper ignored her.

"Don't worry. If you want to be with Daddy, I'll make him move back home."

Then, Grandma Shelby looked at Ivy, who followed her in, saying, " Talk to the doctor about Cooper's discharge

procedure."

"Alright." Ivy nodded, hesitantly adding, "But I can't convince Joe to come home with me, Mrs. Shelby."

"You're so useless." Grandma Shelby glanced at her.
